[edit] Welcome to my user page!

PLEASE NOTE - November 2007: I AM PRESENTLY ON AN EXTENDED WIKI BREAK, mainly through the needs to concentrate on my day-business. This project is great and one in which I believe, but the need to focus right now combined with those who don't believe in the benefits of debate over aggresive editting, means I need some time away from this place. While this notice remains here, I won't be replying to any messages left on my TalkPage - Rgds, - Trident13 12:39, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

I was introduced to this place by an experienced editor in April 2006, after he wrote an article about an online place I am a member of. After a heated debate over that article between current and former members of that place, a lot of sillyness, a three reverts removal, and involving a request for mediation - let's just say I learnt a lot about Wikipedia quickly!

The result of which was I got involved, and I enjoy writing or improving articles, mainly in the areas of:

  • Business
  • Motorcycles - I own four: 1956 BSA Golden Flash, 1973 Triumph Trident, 1978 Norton, 1998 Vespa ET4
  • Sports - Rugby, Football, Sailing (but not in that order if the sun's out)
  • Theatre & Entertainment
  • Cooking & Restuarants

If you have any questions about me, articles I have edited/contributed to, or you just want to communicate - then please leave a message on my Talk Page

----> Leave me a new message <-----

I will be the first to admit I don't always get it right - and the typed internet is not sometimes the best medium through which to have clear communication. But I hope the contribution I make is useful and valued


[edit] My User Name

Trident13 is a reflection on a number of personal pieces in life:

  • Trident - the Anglican religious triumverant; that there always seem to be three things/choices; Oh, and it also happens to be one of the models of motorcycle I own
  • 13 - unlucky for some? OK, sometimes for me as well, but also has a big recurring tie-in in my life


[edit] List of Projects

For me, the joy of Wikipedia is creation - although after a few of your articles get vandalised, you soon get into Troll hunting!

You can see the projects I am working on within my stub projects page, while the following is a list of articles which I started or heavily edited, which are now in use and on which I occasionally add a few extra's to:
